Short summary
Transrectal prostate brachytherapy (BT) can effectively treat prostate cancer. During the operation, doctors need to hold the ultrasound probe for repeated adjustments, which makes it difficult to ensure the efficiency, accuracy, and safety of the operation. We designed an 11 DOF (degrees of freedom) active and passive transrectal BT robot based on the analysis of the transrectal prostate BT process.
